In which John Green teaches you about China'sRevolutions. While the rest of the world was off having a couple of World Wars, China was busily uprooting the dynastic system that had ruled there for millennia. Most revolutions have some degree of tumult associated with them, but China's 20th century revolutions were REALLY disruptive. In 1911 and 1912, Chinese nationalists brought 3000 years of dynastic rule to an end. China plunged into chaos as warlords staked out regions of the country for themselves. The nationalists and communists joined forces briefly to bring the nation back together under the Chinese Republic, and then they quickly split and started fighting the Chinese Civil War. The fight between nationalists and communists went on for decades, and was interrupted by an alliance to fight the invading Japanese during World War II. After the World War II ended, the Chinese Civil War was back on. Mao and the communists were ultimately victorious, and Chiang Kai-Shek ended up in Taiwan. And then it got weird. Mao spent years repeatedly trying to purify the Communist Party and build up the new People's Republic of China with Rectifications, Anti Campaigns, Five Year Plans. the Great Leap Forward, and the Cultural Revolution. These had mixed results, to say the least. John will cover all this and more in this week's Crash Course World History.

Mental Omega is a free unofficial expansion pack for Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge.
It started off as a balance modification created by Speeder and Mevitar and first released in 2005. After a few years, it had grown into an unofficial sequel with new campaigns for the Allies, Soviets, and Yuri. Version 3.3 marks the end of the long road and the final release in the Mental Omega series.
Enhanced with the powerful AresExpansionDLL, Mental Omega 3.3 introduces an entirely new faction to the play: the powerful and technologically advanced FoehnRevolt, as well as continues to bring new features to C&C Red Alert 2Yuri’s Revenge while maintaining a strong sense of gameplay balance.
NEW FEATURES
The 4th Side
Among many consequences of the events that took place during the Act One of the Mental Omega campaign is Yuri's rise to power. However, his increasing strength alerted some, who were forced to form an unexpected alliance and make difficult decisions. The actions of those people will result in the creation of a highly advanced army called the Foehn Revolt.
This new faction is an important part of the new Mental Omega release and comes with its own full set of three subfactions, each of them with their preferred technologies, tactics and weapons as well as unique heroes and special units. The Foehn Revolt relies on technologies and tactics not seen before during the Great War, many of which were possible to do thanks to the new features added by Ares Expansion DLL.
Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Subfactions
Each of sides, the Allies, the Soviets, Yuri's Epsilon and Foehn, is split into three subfactions with their own unique set of new units and a hero to support them. Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Campaigns
Mental Omega 3.3 will continue where the first Red Alert left off and branch out into an expanded universe with over 70 missions for all factions, including Yuri and the Foehn Revolt. The campaign is split into two Acts which relate to two different stages of the war: the Soviet invasion of the United States and the battle against Yuri. Read more about the many missions of Mental Omega in the Campaign section.
CooperativeMode
New singleplayer missions is not all there is. With Mental Omega 3.3 comes a set of new online cooperative missions for 2 players. The Campaign section includes info on cooperative maps as well.
Challenge Mode
A brand new challenge mode will put you, and possibly your ally, in an unusual scenario where the enemy team receives a set of unique boosts and bonuses, which give them a huge advantage.
New SkirmishMaps & Modes
The classic skirmish is not forgotten. With the addition of ~400 new maps, ranging from 2 to 8 players, and a variety of new game modes, there's still a lot to do when you finish the campaigns.
New SoundtrackThanks to several talented musicians, a new soundtrack has been compiled to accompany Mental Omega 3.3. Head to the Soundtrack section to read more about new music and preview some tracks.
Improved Audio & Visuals
Every in-game unit has new, high quality artwork. Each new unit has its unique voiceover set. Updates have been made to enhance the aesthetics of the game. The game can be played in high resolutions without additional hacks, making it compatible with 16:9 options on HD monitors, and will work on newer operating systems including Windows 8 and Windows 10, thanks to Ares Expansion DLL.

In which John Green examines the French Revolution, and gets into how and why it differed from the American Revolution. Was it the serial authoritarian regimes? The guillotine? The Reign of Terror? All of this and more contributed to the French Revolution not being quite as revolutionary as it could have been. France endured multiple constitutions, the heads of heads of state literally rolled, and then they ended up with a megalomaniacal little emperor by the name of Napoleon. But how did all of this change the world, and how did it lead to other, more successful revolutions around the world? Watch this video and find out.

Crash Course

Plot

Crash Course centers on a group of high schoolers in a driver’s education class; many for the second or third time. The recently divorced teacher, super-passive Larry Pearl, is on thin ice with the football fanatic principal, Principal Paulson, who is being pressured by the district superintendent to raise driver’s education completion rates or lose his coveted football program. With this in mind, Principal Paulson and his assistant, with a secret desire for his job, Abner Frasier, hire an outside driver’s education instructor with a very tough reputation, Edna Savage, aka E.W. Savage, who quickly takes control of the class.

The plot focuses mostly on the students and their interactions with their teachers and each other. In the beginning, Rico is the loner with just a few friends, Chadley is the bookish nerd with few friends who longs to be cool and also longs to be a part of Vanessa’s life who is the young, friendly and attractive girl who had to fake her mother’s signature on her driver’s education permission slip. Kichi is the hip-hop Asian kid who often raps what he has to say and constantly flirts with Maria, the rich foreign girl who thinks that the right-of-way on the roadways always goes to (insert awesomely fake foreign Latino accent) “my father’s limo”. Finally you have stereotypical football meathead J.J., who needs to pass his English exam to keep his eligibility and constantly asks out and gets rejected by Alice, the tomboy whose father owns “Santini & Son” Concrete Company. Alice is portrayed as being the “son” her father wanted.

New Tang Dynasty Television

New Tang Dynasty (NTD, Chinese:新唐人電視台) Television is a television broadcaster based in New York City with correspondents in over 70 cities worldwide. The station was founded in 2001 as a Chinese-language broadcaster, but has since expanded its language offerings. The company retains a focus on China in its news broadcasts, and frequently covers topics that are censored in Mainland China, such as human rights. Its stated mission is to "promote uncensored information on China; to restore and promote traditional Chinese culture; and to facilitate mutual understanding between the East and West". NTD was founded and currently operated by Falun Gong practitioners.

History

NTD was founded in 2001 as a Chinese news media. Its mission is to offer "uncensored news" about China that other Chinese media would not cover. The station has a regular focus on the promotion of traditional Chinese culture, and devotes extensive news coverage to Chinese human rights issues, taking a critical stance on abuses of power by the Communist Party of China.

Revolution

A revolution (from the Latinrevolutio, "a turn around") is a fundamental change in political power or organizational structures that takes place in a relatively short period of time when the population rises up in revolt against the current authorities.
Aristotle described two types of political revolution:

Scholarly debates about what does and does not constitute a revolution center on several issues. Early studies of revolutions primarily analyzed events in European history from a psychological perspective, but more modern examinations include global events and incorporate perspectives from several social sciences, including sociology and political science. Several generations of scholarly thought on revolutions have generated many competing theories and contributed much to the current understanding of this complex phenomenon.

World history

World history, global history or transnational history (not to be confused with diplomatic or international history) is a field of historical study that emerged as a distinct academic field in the 1980s. It examines history from a global perspective. It is not to be confused with comparative history, which, like world history, deals with the history of multiple cultures on a global scale.
World historians use a thematic approach, with two major focal points: integration (how processes of world history have drawn people of the world together) and difference (how patterns of world history reveal the diversity of the human experiences).

History

Pre-modern

The study of world history, as distinct from national history, has existed in many world cultures. However, early forms of world history were not truly global, and were limited to only the regions known by the historian.

In Ancient China, Chinese world history, that of China and the surrounding people of East Asia, was based on the dynastic cycle articulated by Sima Qian in circa 100 BC. Sima Qian's model is based on the Mandate of Heaven. Rulers rise when they united China, then are overthrown when a ruling dynasty became corrupt. Each new dynasty begins virtuous and strong, but then decays, provoking the transfer of Heaven's mandate to a new ruler. The test of virtue in a new dynasty is success in being obeyed by China and neighboring barbarians. After 2000 years Sima Qian's model still dominates scholarship, although the dynastic cycle is no longer used for modern Chinese history.

In Europa Universalis IV, you control the fate of any of the hundreds of countries around the world through the maelstrom of the early modern era, from the Age of Discovery to the rise of Napoleon. Mandate of Heaven further enhances this epic experience by adding greater depth to playing the major powers of East Asia and adding a new “Ages” system to add more short-term goals.

Communists, Nationalists, and China's Revolutions: Crash Course World History #37

Don't forget! Crash Course posters and t-shirts at http://store.dftba.com/collections/crashcourse
In which John Green teaches you about China'sRevolutions.

Most revolutions have some degree of tumult associated with them, but China's 20th century revolutions were REALLY disruptive. In 1911 and 1912, Chinese nationalists brought 3000 years of dynastic rule to an end. China plunged into chaos as warlords staked out regions of the country for themselves.

In which John compares and contrasts Greek civilization and the Persian Empire. Of course we're glad that Greek civilization spawned modern western civilization, right? Maybe not. From Socrates and Plato to Darius and Xerxes, John explains two of the great powers of the ancient world, all WITHOUT the use of footage from 300.

The fight between nationalists and communists went on for decades, and was interrupted by an alliance to fight the invading Japanese during World War II. After the World War II ended, the Chinese Civil War was back on. Mao and the communists were ultimately victorious, and Chiang Kai-Shek ended up in Taiwan. And then it got weird. Mao spent years repeatedly trying to purify the Communist Party and build up the new People's Republic of China with Rectifications, Anti Campaigns, Five Year Plans. the Great Leap Forward, and the Cultural Revolution. These had mixed results, to say the least. John will cover all this and more in this week's Crash Course World History.

Mental Omega is a free unofficial expansion pack for Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge.
It started off as a balance modification created by Speeder and Mevitar and first released in 2005. After a few years, it had grown into an unofficial sequel with new campaigns for the Allies, Soviets, and Yuri. Version 3.3 marks the end of the long road and the final release in the Mental Omega series.
Enhanced with the powerful AresExpansionDLL, Mental Omega 3.3 introduces an entirely new faction to the play: the powerful and technologically advanced FoehnRevolt, as well as continues to bring new features to C&C Red Alert 2Yuri’s Revenge while maintaining a strong sense of gameplay balance.
NEW FEATURES
The 4th Side
Among many consequences of the events that took place during the Act One of the Mental Omega campaign is Yuri's rise to power. However, his increasing strength alerted some, who were forced to form an unexpected alliance and make difficult decisions. The actions of those people will result in the creation of a highly advanced army called the Foehn Revolt.
This new faction is an important part of the new Mental Omega release and comes with its own full set of three subfactions, each of them with their preferred technologies, tactics and weapons as well as unique heroes and special units. The Foehn Revolt relies on technologies and tactics not seen before during the Great War, many of which were possible to do thanks to the new features added by Ares Expansion DLL.
Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Subfactions
Each of sides, the Allies, the Soviets, Yuri's Epsilon and Foehn, is split into three subfactions with their own unique set of new units and a hero to support them. Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Campaigns
Mental Omega 3.3 will continue where the first Red Alert left off and branch out into an expanded universe with over 70 missions for all factions, including Yuri and the Foehn Revolt. The campaign is split into two Acts which relate to two different stages of the war: the Soviet invasion of the United States and the battle against Yuri. Read more about the many missions of Mental Omega in the Campaign section.
CooperativeMode
New singleplayer missions is not all there is. With Mental Omega 3.3 comes a set of new online cooperative missions for 2 players. The Campaign section includes info on cooperative maps as well.
Challenge Mode
A brand new challenge mode will put you, and possibly your ally, in an unusual scenario where the enemy team receives a set of unique boosts and bonuses, which give them a huge advantage.
New SkirmishMaps & Modes
The classic skirmish is not forgotten. With the addition of ~400 new maps, ranging from 2 to 8 players, and a variety of new game modes, there's still a lot to do when you finish the campaigns.
New SoundtrackThanks to several talented musicians, a new soundtrack has been compiled to accompany Mental Omega 3.3. Head to the Soundtrack section to read more about new music and preview some tracks.
Improved Audio & Visuals
Every in-game unit has new, high quality artwork. Each new unit has its unique voiceover set. Updates have been made to enhance the aesthetics of the game. The game can be played in high resolutions without additional hacks, making it compatible with 16:9 options on HD monitors, and will work on newer operating systems including Windows 8 and Windows 10, thanks to Ares Expansion DLL.

In which John Green examines the French Revolution, and gets into how and why it differed from the American Revolution. Was it the serial authoritarian regimes? The guillotine? The Reign of Terror? All of this and more contributed to the French Revolution not being quite as revolutionary as it could have been. France endured multiple constitutions, the heads of heads of state literally rolled, and then they ended up with a megalomaniacal little emperor by the name of Napoleon. But how did all of this change the world, and how did it lead to other, more successful revolutions around the world? Watch this video and find out. Spoiler alert: Marie Antoinette never said, "Let them eat cake." Sorry.

The An Lushan Rebellion (In Our Time)

Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss the An Lushan Rebellion, a major uprising against the imperial rule of the ChineseTang Dynasty. In 755 AD a senior general, An Lushan, orchestrated a plot against Emperor Xuanzong, taking the regime's capital city before declaring a rival dynasty in northern China. The rebellion lasted eight years but was eventually put down by Tang forces. Although the dynasty's authority was restored, it never regained the prosperity of previous generations. The An Lushan Rebellion displaced millions of people and killed many more. It changed the relationship between the Chinese state and neighbouring powers; but it also left a rich cultural legacy in the poetry memorialising this seismic event.With:Frances WoodLead Curator of Chinese at the British LibraryNaomi Stand...

The Men Who Lost China - With Chinese subtitles

It is often said that history is the sum total of the things that could have been avoided. While a tremendous amount of literature has been devoted to the turning points of the WesternHistory, little attention has been paid to the US and European policies towards the Chinese Revolution of 1911 and the Middle Kingdom s involvement in World War One. As today s China is gaining its undisputed superpower status, the world press speculates with tremor of its intentions. However, any worthy prediction must be rooted in the diligent study of past events and the comprehension of the Western and Chinese perception of these events. The US involvement in Revolution of 1911 and the perceived Western betrayal in the aftermath of World War One are the two most pivotal points in the Chinese modern histo...

Indonesia in Revolt: Democracy or Death

This historic 1998 film features the Indonesian people's democracy movement and the struggle to bring down the dictator Suharto. A timely documentary based on interviews with activists who disappeared during this time and were tortured by Prabowo Subianto and his forces. Prabowo is currently one of the two candidates standing for president of Indonesia. Prabowo is backed by Indonesia's big business and for him to win the presidency would be a setback for Indonesian democracy.
The filmmaker spent two months in Indonesia gathering a wide range of interviews and footage. Footage in the film is of the real events taking place and how the struggle by the students and activists for democracy in Indonesia put their lives in danger. 13 people who disappeared have never been found.

Communists, Nationalists, and China's Revolutions: Crash Course World History #37

Don't forget! Crash Course posters and t-shirts at http://store.dftba.com/collections/crashcourse
In which John Green teaches you about China'sRevolutions. While the rest of the world was off having a couple of World Wars, China was busily uprooting the dynastic system that had ruled there for millennia. Most revolutions have some degree of tumult associated with them, but China's 20th century revolutions were REALLY disruptive. In 1911 and 1912, Chinese nationalists brought 3000 years of dynastic rule to an end. China plunged into chaos as warlords staked out regions of the country for themselves. The nationalists and communists joined forces briefly to bring the nation back together under the Chinese Republic, and then they quickly split and started fighting the Chinese Civil War. The fight between nationalists and communists went on for decades, and was interrupted by an alliance to fight the invading Japanese during World War II. After the World War II ended, the Chinese Civil War was back on. Mao and the communists were ultimately victorious, and Chiang Kai-Shek ended up in Taiwan. And then it got weird. Mao spent years repeatedly trying to purify the Communist Party and build up the new People's Republic of China with Rectifications, Anti Campaigns, Five Year Plans. the Great Leap Forward, and the Cultural Revolution. These had mixed results, to say the least. John will cover all this and more in this week's Crash Course World History.

_________________________________________________________
Mental Omega is a free unofficial expansion pack for Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge.
It started off as a balance modification created by Speeder and Mevitar and first released in 2005. After a few years, it had grown into an unofficial sequel with new campaigns for the Allies, Soviets, and Yuri. Version 3.3 marks the end of the long road and the final release in the Mental Omega series.
Enhanced with the powerful AresExpansionDLL, Mental Omega 3.3 introduces an entirely new faction to the play: the powerful and technologically advanced FoehnRevolt, as well as continues to bring new features to C&C Red Alert 2Yuri’s Revenge while maintaining a strong sense of gameplay balance.
NEW FEATURES
The 4th Side
Among many consequences of the events that took place during the Act One of the Mental Omega campaign is Yuri's rise to power. However, his increasing strength alerted some, who were forced to form an unexpected alliance and make difficult decisions. The actions of those people will result in the creation of a highly advanced army called the Foehn Revolt.
This new faction is an important part of the new Mental Omega release and comes with its own full set of three subfactions, each of them with their preferred technologies, tactics and weapons as well as unique heroes and special units. The Foehn Revolt relies on technologies and tactics not seen before during the Great War, many of which were possible to do thanks to the new features added by Ares Expansion DLL.
Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Subfactions
Each of sides, the Allies, the Soviets, Yuri's Epsilon and Foehn, is split into three subfactions with their own unique set of new units and a hero to support them. Head to the Factions section for more details.
New Campaigns
Mental Omega 3.3 will continue where the first Red Alert left off and branch out into an expanded universe with over 70 missions for all factions, including Yuri and the Foehn Revolt. The campaign is split into two Acts which relate to two different stages of the war: the Soviet invasion of the United States and the battle against Yuri. Read more about the many missions of Mental Omega in the Campaign section.
CooperativeMode
New singleplayer missions is not all there is. With Mental Omega 3.3 comes a set of new online cooperative missions for 2 players. The Campaign section includes info on cooperative maps as well.
Challenge Mode
A brand new challenge mode will put you, and possibly your ally, in an unusual scenario where the enemy team receives a set of unique boosts and bonuses, which give them a huge advantage.
New SkirmishMaps & Modes
The classic skirmish is not forgotten. With the addition of ~400 new maps, ranging from 2 to 8 players, and a variety of new game modes, there's still a lot to do when you finish the campaigns.
New SoundtrackThanks to several talented musicians, a new soundtrack has been compiled to accompany Mental Omega 3.3. Head to the Soundtrack section to read more about new music and preview some tracks.
Improved Audio & Visuals
Every in-game unit has new, high quality artwork. Each new unit has its unique voiceover set. Updates have been made to enhance the aesthetics of the game. The game can be played in high resolutions without additional hacks, making it compatible with 16:9 options on HD monitors, and will work on newer operating systems including Windows 8 and Windows 10, thanks to Ares Expansion DLL.

The French Revolution: Crash Course World History #29

In which John Green examines the French Revolution, and gets into how and why it differed from the American Revolution. Was it the serial authoritarian regimes? The guillotine? The Reign of Terror? All of this and more contributed to the French Revolution not being quite as revolutionary as it could have been. France endured multiple constitutions, the heads of heads of state literally rolled, and then they ended up with a megalomaniacal little emperor by the name of Napoleon. But how did all of this change the world, and how did it lead to other, more successful revolutions around the world? Watch this video and find out. Spoiler alert: Marie Antoinette never said, "Let them eat cake." Sorry.

Crash Course

Plot

Crash Course centers on a group of high schoolers in a driver’s education class; many for the second or third time. The recently divorced teacher, super-passive Larry Pearl, is on thin ice with the football fanatic principal, Principal Paulson, who is being pressured by the district superintendent to raise driver’s education completion rates or lose his coveted football program. With this in mind, Principal Paulson and his assistant, with a secret desire for his job, Abner Frasier, hire an outside driver’s education instructor with a very tough reputation, Edna Savage, aka E.W. Savage, who quickly takes control of the class.

The plot focuses mostly on the students and their interactions with their teachers and each other. In the beginning, Rico is the loner with just a few friends, Chadley is the bookish nerd with few friends who longs to be cool and also longs to be a part of Vanessa’s life who is the young, friendly and attractive girl who had to fake her mother’s signature on her driver’s education permission slip. Kichi is the hip-hop Asian kid who often raps what he has to say and constantly flirts with Maria, the rich foreign girl who thinks that the right-of-way on the roadways always goes to (insert awesomely fake foreign Latino accent) “my father’s limo”. Finally you have stereotypical football meathead J.J., who needs to pass his English exam to keep his eligibility and constantly asks out and gets rejected by Alice, the tomboy whose father owns “Santini & Son” Concrete Company. Alice is portrayed as being the “son” her father wanted.

The Men Who Lost China - With Chinese subtitles

It is often said that history is the sum total of the things that could have been avoided. While a tremendous amount of literature has been devoted to the turning points of the WesternHistory, little attention has been paid to the US and European policies towards the Chinese Revolution of 1911 and the Middle Kingdom s involvement in World War One. As today s China is gaining its undisputed superpower status, the world press speculates with tremor of its intentions. However, any worthy prediction must be rooted in the diligent study of past events and the comprehension of the Western and Chinese perception of these events. The US involvement in Revolution of 1911 and the perceived Western betrayal in the aftermath of World War One are the two most pivotal points in the Chinese modern history. Their memory is deeply etched in the Chinese national identity and these two milestones will affect the Beijing government outlook for decades to come. This documentary aims to enlighten anyone interested in the history Far East and the in the future of the East-West power balance.

Indonesia in Revolt: Democracy or Death

This historic 1998 film features the Indonesian people's democracy movement and the struggle to bring down the dictator Suharto. A timely documentary based on interviews with activists who disappeared during this time and were tortured by Prabowo Subianto and his forces. Prabowo is currently one of the two candidates standing for president of Indonesia. Prabowo is backed by Indonesia's big business and for him to win the presidency would be a setback for Indonesian democracy.
The filmmaker spent two months in Indonesia gathering a wide range of interviews and footage. Footage in the film is of the real events taking place and how the struggle by the students and activists for democracy in Indonesia put their lives in danger. 13 people who disappeared have never been found.
Co produced by ASIET and ARTV in Australia. Made by filmmakers Jill Hickson and John Reynolds.
